Everyone when you have a chance, take a look at our new introductory video into SilkCoin  Introducing Operation Shock & Awe What is Operation Shock & Awe?Operation Shock & Awe is the internal name for a social initiative spearheaded through a series of giveaways from various outlets. The aim of operation shock and awe is to do a blitz of SilkCoin and get as many people as possible to hear about SilkCoin, download our wallet, learn about our features and in the process get listed on further exchanges. How will Operation Shock & Awe work?Operation Shock & Awe is a 2-part initiative. Part 1, which is currently underway and will continue all the way through to the 2nd PoW phase, will be used to spread the word around about SilkCoin and in turn get listed on MintPal. This will provide us some stability and foundation going through to the 2nd PoW phase. Part 2, which will collerate with the start of the 2nd Pow phase, will be a full on social media blitz to get as many people as possible to hear about SilkCoin. We already have some big crypto names in social media lined up ready for part 2. The names of these social media accounts will be anounced at the start of part 2. Who are the current participants on Part 1?All Crypto All DayCryptoSandwich Between the 2 above Twitter accounts, they have a following of over 36 000 people. SilkCoin will be tweeted about daily to each of these 36 000 followers.

This have not been updated for a long time ! As for Zerocoin integration, we stated earlier in this thread that we stopped the dev work on zerocoin because of the masterkey problem, and because we discovered it could not be compatible with the eco-system. We were also working on an another system of our own based on Darksend, but for now on it's on hold until we see how everything goes there's a lot going on right now in anon domain and we'll integrate the fittest option when time comes. And we won't integrate untested blockchain features in a rush just to get a pump, remember we're long term. So we're not really in the anon feature race it's not the n°1 priority at the moment, but be sure it will be integrated in time. On other news, we're all very busy with the next update, expect a release on Thursday, maximum Friday! When I'll have a little bit more time I'll try to update this part of the website with more accurate data on current devs, as you may see the social network is not even in the list. |

Sorry, but I would be very wary of storing any Silk Coin on any online location. Heck it is risky to store large amounts on well established exchanges where the risk of getting Goxxed is real. One day in the BC hype I had accumulated 14 BTC selling BC. Then Mintpal went offline. I thought I got goxxed. I was freaking out until they came back up. NEVER leave a bunch of coins on an online service. Judge Crypto |

On the Exchange Front...
The tension is building like two sides going to war. On Poloniex there is a buy order for 246,043 Silk Coin... Someone does not want to take a chance on the price dropping during the 2nd PoW...
To be honest it is quite difficult to buy large amounts of Silk now. If you wait for the second proof of work to get your coins you may miss out. Very small purchases can move the market... Less than 5BTC of Silk purchases on Bittrex would move the price to 2500 satoshi. Wow!
This coin is headed to the moon! Great developers, active marketing, and a great community. Go look around the forums and compare...

Is there a known issue with the new Windows wallet version 1.0.8? It crashes every time I try to run it. The splash screen comes up for about a second, then gone. Over and over. I deleted everything from AppData\Roaming\Silkcoin except the wallet, same deal. If I delete that folder, when I start the wallet that folder gets recreated but no files are. I had the same issue with 1.0.7.
I am running version v1.0.6.0-g32a928e successfully on Windows 7 Pro x64 SP 1. Any ideas? I have run 1.0.8 on the desktop (standalone) and in the folder for 1.0.6.
Thanks ahead.
(Why, yes I voted on mintpal! Have you?)

Good point! Everyone do yourselves a favor... Go buy TWO Usb thumb drives. BACKUP your wallet.dat files for ANY coin you have to each one. Make sure they are encrypted in case they fall into the wrong hands. Store the USB drives in a safe place with one being a different physical location. Then if your hard drive dies, you delete your directory, your wife shoots the computer, or you have a flood, you can still recover your coins. Judge Crypto |

Could anyone provide a quick summary of what's special about this coin - what sets it apart from others (I notice it's pretty stable in its ascent, for one thing, but I'm talking coin tech specs and development plans).

Judge Crypto
I agree with judgecrypto, right now it's very difficult to buy large amounts of SilkCoin. That buy order has been up there for close to two days, and it hasn't moved much. In fact when it first popped onto the order book it was at 1500 Satoshis, the buyer has gotten impatient waiting for someone to sell and moved it up to 1800 Satoshis and it's still there. With the amount of attention that we'll be getting at the start of the 2nd PoW phase, it will flood the market with new buyers and as judgecrypto mentioned that only 5 BTC is needed to get to 2500 Satoshis. The price will have a dramatic increase. There will be the inevitable dump of some coins from some miners and multipools, however by then I predict the market would've already have moved up to a new price level. |
